DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Without limiting the scope of any claim and/or the specification, examples of industrial applicability and certain advantageous effects of the disclosed embodiments are listed for illustrative purposes. Various alternations, modifications, or equivalents to the technical solutions of the disclosed embodiments can be obvious to those skilled in the art and can be included in this disclosure.

Nowadays, social platforms, for example, blogs are becoming more and more popular, and there are many social platform users in a social platform. Usually, a social platform user may communicate with another social platform user by sending messages. In order to increase interestingness of communicating with other social platform users, there is a need to provide a new method for social platform users to communicate with each other.

FIG. 1 illustrates a particular scenario (for example, a restaurant) provided by a social platform, in which there are many virtual roles. Each role in this scenario is defined by several characteristics, for example, virtual career, power, intelligence and so on. A role in this particular scenario may wish to invite his/her friend users to take part in this particular scenario, and a new role will also be assigned with respective characteristics, for example, virtual career, power, intelligence and so on.

The present disclosure provides methods and devices for determining characteristic data for a virtual role.

FIG. 2 illustrates a first embodiment of the present disclosure. According to the first embodiment of the present disclosure, a server may acquire a request for characteristic data from a requester, wherein the request comprises identification information of the requester and/or identification information of a requested user (Step 201).

Identification information of a social platform user refers to information for identifying said social platform user, such as a user identification ID, a user nickname, a user portrait and a user label and so on. The user label is composed of certain keywords for describing said social platform user, such as “engineer,” “professor” or “intelligence.” The present disclosure does not intend to limit the types of the characteristic data, and any type of characteristic data should be within the scope of the present disclosure.

The server calculates the characteristic data under a particular scenario in response to the request (Step 202).

The particular scenario refers to activity scenarios of the social platform, as shown in FIG. 1 of the present disclosure. The characteristic data under the particular scenario refers to characteristic data configured to enable the social platform user to communicate with other users under the particular scenario.

The entities for implementing the information processing method according to the present disclosure may be a specific server. In an example, the entities for implementing the information processing method may store the characteristic data locally.

Additionally, in the first embodiment of the present disclosure, a requester transmits a request to a server, for acquiring the characteristic data of the requester under a particular scenario. The request comprises identification information of the requester. The server extracts the identification information of the requester from the request.

In this embodiment, the server calculates the characteristic data of the requester according to the identification information of the requester. Then, the server transmits the calculated characteristic data of the requester to the requester (Step 203). In an example, the calculated characteristic data may also be stored in the server locally. In practice, there are many ways for calculating the characteristic data, and the present disclosure does not intended to be limited to any particular way for calculating the characteristic data.

As an example, the following provides a method for calculating characteristic data of a user under a particular scenario according to a user ID:

Step a: converting letters, characters, and numerals of the user ID into key values, and subtracting 48 from each of the key values, so as to form a string of numerals;

Step b: dividing the string of numerals by 7, and reserving the most previous 10 numerals of the quotient. If the quotient is less than ten numerals, then zeros will be padded at the end of the quotient, so that the quotient will have ten numerals.

Step c: based on the result of Step b, the characteristic data of the user will be obtained according to a predetermined calculation rule.

For example, if the user ID is “adesso”, the key values corresponding to the user ID “adesso” will be 65, 68, 69, 83, 83 and 79, respectively. A string of numerals 172021353531 will be obtained by subtracting 48 from the respective key values. Then, the string of numerals 172021353531 is divided by 7, and the most previous 10 numerals of the quotient are reserved, the result will be 2457447907

The characteristic data of the user under the particular scenario is calculated as follows:

The characteristic data A=(the first numeral from the left of the result×10)+the second numeral from the left of the result;

The characteristic data B=(the third numeral from the left of the result×10)+the fourth numeral from the left of the result;

The characteristic data C=(the fifth numeral from the left of the result×10)+the sixth numeral from the left of the result;

The characteristic data D=(the seventh numeral from the left of the result×10) +the eighth numeral from the left of the result.

According to the above rule, when the result of step b is 2457447907, then the characteristic data A, B, C and D will be 24, 57, 44 and 79, respectively.

According to an example of the present disclosure, when the characteristic data of the user is determined based on a user label, the value of the characteristic data may be upgraded according to a keyword of the user label. For example, if the user label comprises a keyword “engineer,” then the value of the characteristic data A (for example, intelligence) will be upgraded. For another example, if the user label comprises a keyword “athlete,” then the value of the characteristic data B (for example, power) will be upgraded.

After a user has been assigned with characteristics, the user may then be able to take part in this scenario provide by the social platform. Social platform users may be able to communicate with each other in this particular scenario (for example, virtual restaurant). In this way, the present disclosure provides another way for social platform users to communicate with each other, which also improves the flexibility of communications between social platform users.

FIG. 3 illustrates a second embodiment of the present disclosure. According to the second embodiment of the present disclosure, a server acquires a request from a requester, wherein the request may comprise identification information of the requester and identification information of a requested user (Step 301). The requester refers to a user that requests for characteristic data, while the requested user refers to a user being requested by the requester. The server extracts the identification information of the requester and the identification information of the requested user from the request.

In this embodiment, the server calculates the characteristic data of the requested user according to the identification information of the requester and the identification information of the requested user (Step 302). Then, the server transmits the calculated characteristic data of the requested user to the requester (Step 303). In an example, the calculated characteristic data of the requested user may also be stored in the server locally. In practice, there are many ways for calculating the characteristic data, and the present disclosure does not intended to be limited to any particular way for calculating the characteristic data.

As an example, the following provides a method for calculating characteristic data of a requested user under a particular scenario according to a user ID:

Step a: converting letters, characters, and numerals in the user ID of the requester into key values, and subtracting 48 from each of the key values, so as to form a string of numerals; converting letters, characters, and numerals in the user ID of the requested user into key values, and subtracting 48 from each of the key values, so as to form another string of numerals.

Step b: for each of the above two strings of numerals, dividing the string of numerals by 7, and reserving the most previous 10 numerals of the quotient. If the quotient is less than ten numerals, then zeros will be padded at the end of the quotient, so that the quotient will have ten numerals. Then, since there are two strings of numerals, two results will be obtained.

Step c: the two results will be added. Based on the addition of the two results, the characteristic data of the requested user will be obtained according to a predetermined calculation rule. The predetermined calculation rule employed in the second embodiment may be the same as that employed in the first embodiment, although a different calculation rule may also be employed.

Additionally, the particular scenario according to the second embodiment may be the particular scenario of the requester. That is, the requester may request other users to take part in the particular scenario of the requester. Based on the characteristic data of the requested user under the particular scenario of the requester, there is provided another flexible way for the requester to communicate with the requested user.

To facilitate understanding of the present disclosure, here is provided an example. If a social platform user A is now playing an online game on his terminal, and a particular scenario is shown on his terminal. The social platform user A sends a request to a server for requesting a social platform user B to take part in the particular scenario on his terminal. The request comprises identification information of the social platform user A and the identification information of the social platform user B.

Based on the identification information of the social platform user A and the identification information of the social platform user B, the server may determine the characteristic data of the social platform user B under the particular scenario, for example, power, intelligence and so on. In this way, the social platform user B then may take part in the online game of the social platform user A.

FIG. 4 illustrates a third embodiment of the present disclosure. According to the third embodiment of the present disclosure, a requester may transmit a request to a server, and the request may comprise identification information of the requester (Step 401). The server may voluntarily select a predetermined number of randomly selected users in response to the request. Then, the server calculates the characteristic data of the predetermined number of randomly selected users under a particular scenario based on the identification information of the requester and the identification information of the predetermined number of randomly selected users (Step 402). The server may transmit the calculated characteristic data of the predetermined number of randomly selected users to the requester (Step 403). In an example, the predetermined number of randomly selected users may be friend users of the requester.

FIG. 5 illustrates a fourth embodiment of the present disclosure. According to the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure, the server may voluntarily acquire identification information of a designated user (Step 501). That is, the server is capable of calculating characteristic data of the designated user under a particular scenario based on the acquired identification information of the designated user (Step 502), and sending the calculated characteristic data to the designated user (Step 503). In this way, the server may be able to voluntarily invite a social platform user to take part in an online game. Here, the social platform user being invited is referred to as the designated user.

In this embodiment, the calculated characteristic data may also be stored in the server locally. Any suitable algorithm may be employed to determine the characteristic data of the designated user.

FIG. 6 illustrates a fifth embodiment of the present disclosure. According to the fifth embodiment of the present disclosure, the server may voluntarily acquire identification information of a designated user and identification information of a predetermined number of randomly selected users (Step 601). That is, the server is capable of calculating the characteristic data of the predetermined number of randomly selected users under a particular scenario based on the identification information of the designated user and the identification information of the predetermined number of randomly selected users (Step 602), and transmitting the characteristic data of the predetermined number of randomly selected users to the designated user (Step 603).

In this embodiment, the calculated characteristic data may also be stored in the server locally. Any suitable algorithm may be employed to determine the characteristic data of the designated user.

It should be pointed out, when characteristic data of a user is determined based on the user's nickname, the nickname should first be converted to letters and/or characters, and the calculation of the characteristic data is being performed based on these letters and/or characters

When characteristic data of a user is determined based on the user's portrait, part or all of the user's portrait should converted to a serial of chromaticity values, and the calculation of the characteristic data is being performed based on these chromaticity values. Specially, a user's portrait may be divided into 10 blocks, and chromaticity values of each of these 10 blocks are converted into corresponding key values; then, key values of each of these 10 blocks are added together to form a numeral. Therefore, for each block, there will be a corresponding numeral, i.e. 10 numerals will be obtained. Further, 10 numerals will form a result having 10 numerals.

For example, chromaticity values for a block are #ccf56b, #cc0099, #563457, and these chromaticity values are converted to be key values 31919225618, 319190099, 3563457, respectively, and these key values are further added together to form a numeral 4, thus this block has a corresponding number 4. The same operations will be performed on each of 10 blocks, so as to obtain 10 numerals. These 10 numerals will form a result having 10 numerals.

The present disclosure also provides an apparatus for processing information based on a social platform, as shown in FIG. 7 of the present disclosure. The system comprises: an acquisition module 701, a calculation module 702 and a transmission module 703.
